The Role of Positive and Negative Information Processing in COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake in Women of Generation X, Y and Z

The aim of the study was the exploration of the generational diversity among psychological predictors of COVID-19 vaccine uptake related to the role of positive and negative information processing related health behavior factors. 

Based on former literature findings, the COVID-19 vaccine uptake predictors were chosen from the health beliefs model (e.g. susceptibility, severity, benefits, barriers, cues to action), Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy (skepticism, risk perception, fear) and psychological flexibility (avoidance, acceptance, harnessing).

本研究旨在探究与正负信息加工相关健康行为因素作用相关的新冠疫苗接种心理预测因素的代际差异。基于既往文献研究结果，本研究从健康信念模型（Health Belief Model，包含易感性、严重性、获益性、障碍性、行动线索）、新冠疫苗接种犹豫（含怀疑态度、风险感知、恐惧情绪）以及心理灵活性（含回避、接纳、利用）中选取新冠疫苗接种的预测因素。
